Dating back to 1549, Château de Beaucastel is undoubtedly one of the oldest and finest estates in Châteauneuf-du-Pape and has been run by successive generations of the supremely talented Perrin family. 1989 was the debut vintage for the flagship wine, Hommage a Jacques Perrin, and is only made in the best years with production limited to around 350 cases on average. The 2010 is an immensely concentrated and firmly structured release, offering up intense notes of cassis, blueberry, kirsch, liquorice, smoked meats, wild herbs and new leather. This is a profound wine that will require at least another 5 years in the cellar but has near limitless cellaring potential.

The 2010 Châteauneuf-du-Pape Hommage à Jacques Perrin is a monumental achievement from the Perrin family. Its kaleidoscopic nose kicks off with hauntingly fragrant rosewater, forest floor, kirsch, tobacco, lavender, ripe blackberry and black cherry compote. Crushed rocks add yet another layer of complexity. This ambitious red masterfully balances finesse and intensity with marked flavor concentration, culminating in an almost never-ending, nuanced resolution. Anyone fortunate enough to own this singular Châteauneuf-du-Pape can consider themselves really, really lucky. That said, I have a feeling the best is yet to come.Nicolas Greinacher1st November 2024
